    i just really want to give some love to the nurse/hca (unsure) who gave my eye drops/pressure test in the macular unit morning of 15/2. she was so so lovely and made me feel a lot more comfortable and less anxious than i was walking in. amazing woman and i really appreciated the extra time you took with me, thank you!

  2. Review titled A Worthwhile Appointment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mary Taylor - Posted on 11 January 2023

    Having been treated for Macula Degeneration since 2014, I have always been pleased with my treatment. On Monday afternoon 9th January 2023 I arrived for my check up, all went well, ending with my consultation with Doctor…….who had studied the results of various tests, he was courteous, informative, very reassuring and this 88 years young patient is very appreciative.

  3. Review titled Fantastic Service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by George Moss - Posted on 09 January 2023

    Had cataract removal surgery on 06/01/23 and othe service was absolutely brilliant. The nurse explained everything that was going to happen in theatre, was with me all through the treatment and then invited my wife to join me to explain the aftercare. I would give you 11 out of 10 if it were possible. Thank you

  4. Review titled Amazing

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by April Little - Posted on 21 November 2022

    Staff were extremely friendly. I cant thank the receptionist enough for how friendly and quickly she arranged for the doctor to see my two week old baby after a mess about with another hospital left us not knowing what to do. Also I m so grateful for how much she calmed my nerves after traveling from Newcastle with a poorly newborn by simply telling me I was doing great with my daughter, when youre with a poorly child its the worst feeling in the world but she made me feel so much better about the whole experience. Also I need to thank the doctor that saw my daughter for how gentle and patient he was with my daughter and for him being so understanding of the situation. Honestly one of the best practices I have been to, after the nightmare I had elsewhere during the before it was amazing to actually be somewhere that listened and felt like they wanted to help my baby. The wait was so quick as people were straight in and out, the practice was spotless with all the staff well presented aswell. I can not fault the place.

  5. Review titled Excellent experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by June Coburn - Posted on 29 November 2022

    I damaged my eye while gardening on Sunday, had an emergency triage appointment with my opticians at noon who referred me to Eye Infirmary. So by 4pm I was being seen by accident and emergency dept. Fast, efficient and effective treatment by highly professional staff. Home by 6pm. Thank you all so much.

  6. Review titled Gold Standard

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Andrew E - Posted on 18 November 2022

    The level of care and assistance given by all the staff is exemplary. I felt they genuinely cared about my experience and they allayed fears about procedures by carefully explaining what they were going to do. This is the gold standard which other areas of the NHS should aspire too. Thank you!
